356 Days to Go

Here is a (no brainer) word of advice: If you don’t want to be tempted, don’t buy it!

Yesterday I confessed that i had a few goodies and was not very well behaved when it

came to changing my lifestyle. Today I was much better! I ate right, excercised longer

than the rest  of the days (even though my heel was killing me), experienced high stress

and wham next thing you know the double stuffed Oreos were open! 

3 Oreos and a miniature chocolate frosty later, I can look at my mistakes and Praise the Lord that I stopped there!

Today I am 39 and 7 days old! Yikes!

Well, I am one week into my journey and am happy to say that I am 5.5 lbs  lighter! Yahoo!

This was not an easy task. Since last Tuesday I worked out 5 days and ate right everyday.

BUT today I let down my guard and had a sweet tea, a choc. eclair popsicle and  a bag of Sun Chips (no not all in the same bite). DUH! What’s up with that. Am I afraid of doing well? Hmmmm I just don’t know but this needs to change.

So, here is another problem…..diet Coke! I need to work on getting that out of my diet.

Another hurdle is, I believe, I have a heel spur and OUCH it hurts when I am working out or let alone just walking. In the past this would have discouraged me from working out but QUITTING IS NOT AN OPTION!!!!!!   

Looking forward to another great week. I just need to remember that God is with me every step of the way and when temptations come I need to turn to HIM.

373 Days & 100 lbs to Lose-That’s MY Goal

I want to be fit by 40!  One way not to do it is by celebrating a good thing with a Love It, PB Perfection from Cold Stone. It sure tasted good but it won’t look good in a bathing suit.

Clothes are getting snug, some things just don’t look as cute on me as before. Hmmm, I wonder why. Recently I watched a Dr. Oz show and saw a woman younger than I on bucket loads of medication because she was morbidly obese. That is not what I want for my life. I want to be able to fly in a plane and not wonder if the seats got smaller or the seat belts are shorter. It stinks at shopping in the big girl section or the big girl store. Who wants that? Not me, I am tired of it and I want to change now.

I am so thankful for this time of year because of all the fresh fruits and veggies. So long as I can limit my intake of  junk and enjoy more of natures goodies, I could actually be on the right track to reaching my goal.

Join me on my journey!!! I need all the support and accountability I can get.
